Sneaky Simon saw some sheep,
Saw some shepherds sleep, sleep, sleep.
Sneaky Simon stole some sheep.

Snooping Sheep Society shamus spots snoozer-boozers;
Soldiers seize slumbering shepherds, 
suspecting subterfuge surrounding stolen sheep, 
Slippery Simon skedaddles, secretly sells sweep.

Sneaky Simon saw some sheep,
Saw some shepherds sleep, sleep, sleep.
Sneaky Simon stole some sheep.

Simon saga situation summation:
Snoozers seized, soldiers saluted
Slippery Simon silently scooted,
Slacker shepherds sang swan songs,
Sneaky Simon, satisfied, strong.
Snookered shepherds, short of skill,
Sneaky Simon sneaking still.

Sneaky Simon saw some sheep,
Saw some shepherds sleep, sleep, sleep.
Sneaky Simon stole some sheep.
